Let Y1, Y2, . . . , Yn denote a random sample

Chapter 9, Problem 51E

(choose chapter or problem)

Let \(Y_{1}, Y_{2}, \ldots, Y_{n}\) denote a random sample from the probability density function

                                                    \(f(y \mid \theta)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}e^{-(y-\theta),} & y \geq \theta \\0, & \text { elsewhere }\end{array}\right.\)

Show that \(Y_{(n)}=\min \left(Y_{1}, Y_{2}, \ldots, Y_{n}\right)\) is sufficient for \(\theta\).
